Fable or Fabulous

All Aboard the Meme Express – Thursday, June 4, 2009

Aesop, famed ancient Greek fabulist (Aesop's Fables), was born on June 4, 620 BC. Aesop’s most popular stories included:

The Ant and the Grasshopper

The Boy Who Cried Wolf

The Dog and the Bone

The Fox and the Grapes

The Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs

The Lion and the Mouse

The Lion’s Share

The North Wind and the Sun

The North Wind and the Sun

The Tortoise and the Hare

The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse

The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing

Today’s Meme Express prompt is twofold (take your pick, or use both words):

fable

fabulous

If you prefer, you might pick one of Aesop’s fables, and use the title to create your own composition. Or you might even write your own fable.

Perhaps this concept will inspire you to create a drawing, a poem, a short story, or a journal entry. Then return here to leave a comment with your link. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)
